Greetings!

I read in flat mode, so this is a general reply to all of the above (from my perspective). One of these days I will get there. It is not a matter of travel or tickets or anything. Just otherwise occupied with work and other related topics here.

Plus, as my profile says, I am an anti-social hermit. In real life, it takes a lot to get me out from behind a computer screen. To get me to travel will usually take a natural disaster of some catastrophic proportion. I didn't even make the New York meet (last year?), and that was only 40 minutes away...
